EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: During the
Morgan raid AN amusing incident occurred one
night near Walnut HILLS, Cincinnati OF course
the news had spread that Morgan was coming.
and that Hobson was after him. but the route
was not known. All at once. in the distance,
dust was seen TO rise in clouds by the citizens
along the roadside. and they eagerly watched
TO see if they could distinguish which party il
might be that was raising such a cOmmotion.
The advance-guard passed, and after looking
and wondering aud questioning each other as
TO which party IL could be--they all looked so
trave-stained and mOtley-they decided they
were HObson's men after Morgan. When that
question was settled la their minds they went
20 work with a will 10 feed the poor, hungry
soldiers. There was a well by the roadside,
and two remained at the well with cups 20 hand
water 10 the thirsty soldiers. The rest went
into the house TO bake gTiddle-cakes and make
coffee. They kept on working, handing water,
coffee and cakes 20 the hungry fellows, who
gTasped with eager hands the refreshing draft
and nonrishing morsel. They still kept COM
ing until IL seemed there was no end 10 them.
but with untiring zeal these patriotic women
ceased not their kind attentions.
One thing they had noticed, they all seemed
so quiet; scarcely a word had been spoken.
About midnight one of the men looked car
nestly down from his horse NJ the Young lady
who had just handed him a drink of water
She noticed sly twinkle in his eye as he
asked the question, DO YOU know who YOU
arc feedingy" She answered, &" Yes you are
Hobson's men," Said he, with a smile 1--WE
are Morgan's men" She Immediately threw
down her tin, locked the pump, went into the
house, put out the lights. and fastened the
door. She sat by the window and watched the
rest 90 by. About noon the next day Hobsou
came along, and they renewed their effort:

EmToR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: ] will tell you
the story Of the hakc-ovcn of the 23d Wis IL
may remind some OF the comrades Of old
times. On Nov. 3, 1853, the 23d Wis, 10th Ind
S3d Ohio, 18th H., and 18th Ohio battery were
on advance duty at Carron Crow Bayou, La
The 23d Wis. had an iron bake-oveu that was
drawn by one horse. and a baker, who tool,
charge Of the horse or mule, whichever he could
cOniiscato, and when we went into camp where
we could get flour Of the commissary instead Of
bareback, the boys enjoyed their soft tack.
When we were on the march the oven was
filled with extra clothing and such valuable
articles as the boys did not like 10 lug
On Nov. 20. 1863, day 20 be remembered
by every man that WIS there the 23d Wis was
being paid of, aud was surprised and attacked
by Gen. Green, of Texas, with five times oul
number. Wegot into line ia time 10 give them a
GOOD Noll"y. hut were forced TO fan back Tho
rebels plnndered our camp, aud took everything
they could find but the bake oven. They la.
spectod that distance and decided that il was
an internal machine, and gave IL wide berth
That night our boys went and brought in the
oven with its valuable contents. -. q. MORTON.

The MOrmOns.

w. A. Hodgman, Tikura, Idaho, does not
agree with COmrade Prentice. who argued that
as poIygamy is part of the religion of the Nor
mons they should not be prosecuted for prac-
ticing it. The writer says there is no strength
in such an argument, as poiygamy is contrary
to the spirit of our institutions and is demon
alizing and degrading. He says the MormOns
are as disloyal as ever were the people of the
South.
Philip Faust, Ophir. Utah, referring to the
communications of Comrade Prentice, 10Th U.
5. Inf, Sabetha, Kan, and COmrade Reeves
10th Mo, Bozeman, Mont, who defended the
MormOns. says that he disagrees with them
most emphatcalIy. He has lived among the
Mormons for 10 years, and says they are moth
ing but rebels and traitors" living in open
defiance of the laws. The writer served in
the Mexican war and received four severe
wounds in the war Of the rebellion.
Mrs Mary 3. Mallory, Stockton. Utah, pays
high tribute to the ability, integrity and fear
lessness of Gov. Murray, of Utah. who she be-
lieves will enforce whatever laws may be
passed by Congress for the suppression of
polygamy.

Homes for Settlers.

w. III. Barnwell. 18th Ohio. Orleans, Neb
thinks that part of the country is one of the
best places upon earth for the poor man who
wants good start. He speaks enthusiast
eally of the soil, crops and climate. and says he
will readily answer all inquiries from his old
comrades of the war.
j. B. Pearson, Tracy, Iowa, has a desire to
remove to Arkansas, and would like to hear
from some of the comrades living in that
State in regard to soil, climate, ETC., in various
sections.
Mrs. l.. s. Kuhn. Belmore, Fla says that
place is beautifully located, well laid ont. and
is a delightful place to live. She thinks the
climate in that part Of Florida very advantage
eous for invalids. Land is cheap in that vicin-
ity, and offers every advantage to those seek
ing homes. She advises, however, that all per-
sons see for themselves before buying.
Adam Bair. Co. B, 9th Ohio, San Luis Obispo
Cal, writes in glowing terms of the salubriOus
and productive climate of California. He
thinks that part of the State in which he
lives offers unsurpassed advantages to settlers,
although he advises his comrades to look out
for nd-sharks.
Il. b. Boyd, Hutchinson, Kan, referring to
the inquiry of" J. w." GallipoIis, o., in re-
gard to land warrants says that if any of the
comrades have warrants to sell at reasonable
prices he can find buyers.

and every reference thereto wounds their sensi-
bilities.
VIM. Harry, jr., Rapids, N. Y thinks there is
great injustice done by the pension laws in re-
gard to equivalent disability" He says he is
totally disabled by reason of wounds and dis
ease, but his pension is much less than many
who have lost q limb, but are in good health
and well able to make a living.
a Veteran" Meriden, Neb., thinks 10 is
very unjust TO pay the widows of Generals such
large pensions and the private soldiers such
small ones.
Hugh l.. Thompson, Sd Wis Cav, Carl juno
ton, Mo-, thinks the pension laws need a gen.
eral overhauling, and gives at considerable
length his views of how they should be fixed.
A. Walker, Point An Roche, ~ Y, says he
received seven wounds, from which he is
greatly disabled He draws but "a month,
while an acquaintance who lost a leg but is in
excellent health and can sit ON his bench and
do a good days work draws $i5 a month. He
thinks there is great injustice in these rulings.
j. III. B. RenfrO, ElizabethtOwn, ILL.,, fully in
dOrses the position of THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE
in the matter of pensions. He thinks that if
some of the just measures now before Congress
should be passed part of the millions now
stored in the vaults of the Treasury would be
put into circulation where it would do some
good.
F. Register, 32l South Fifth St., Philadelphia,
Pa, objects TO the pension bill recently passed
by Congress, because the fee of s. allowed to
attorneys is insufficient. [Vetoed1
Henry III. Erb, National Military Home, o.,
referring to the $12-amonth pension bill, says
he does not think that amount sufficient to
keep the soldiers out Of the poOrhouse, as they
cannot live on it when totally disabled.
5. ID. Bingham, Co. K, 9th Conn, RivertOn,
Conn, protests against the injustice that was
done to the soldiers who enlisted in 1861 under
the promise that they should be paid in gold
or its equivalent but instead Of this were paid
in a deprecated currency. He thinks the Gov
eminent ought to correct this wrong. He
thinks the soldiers are certainly as much en-
titled to receive gold as the bOndholders.
Capt. James NJ. Harrington, st. Louis No.,
an Old-time Lower Mississippi pilot, who served
in that capacity during the war, urges the pas
sage of bill that will do Justice to the pilots
who did excellent and faithful service in the
war, and many of whom are suffering from
wounds and disease contracted in the service
G.. @. Bowen, Miler's, Ohio, thinks there is
fragrant injustice in Senator Sherman's prOpO-
sition to grant arrears of pension to those who
have lost limbs but not to give it to those suffer
ing from equivalent disabilities from other
causes. He hopes the soldiers everywhere will
enter a vigorous remOnstrance against such a
wrong

Milford, Ind, is engaged in gathering up odd
and curious things pertaining to the war; There
were many droll nick names which were
given to soldiers by their comrades, and by
which they were always known through the
regiments. He would like TO make a collec-
ton Of them, and the accidents or peeuliari-
ties from which they originated. He would be
pleased to hear from any of the comrades on
this subject. The writer was known as the
"Persimmon Boy" He was greatly pleased
with Col. Fred. Grants articles, and well re-
members seeing the little cuss, as we used to
call him."
Jacob Slonigar, Co. A, 10th Kan, Mendon,

Black has not done justice to the soldiers in
his rulings.
G. E. Sholl, Camden, Ind, wishes, for friend
ships sake only, having no AK to grind, TO

Kelsey, members OF an Ohio regiment, who
were taken prisoners from Gen. ShieIdss army

The writer was with them in confinement, and
they mutually promised TO meet after the war

Hoffman in command of the 56th Pa, and that
he was Colonel of the 23d n. Y, wishes to say
that Comrade Mitchell may be correct about a
Col. Huffman having command of the 23d y.
Y, but Col Hoffman did command the 56th
Pa. at the battle of Gainesville.
G.. ID. Cutshall, Co b, 18th Pa Cav, referring
to the recent inquiry of COmrade Scherich, Co.
A, 18th Pa, in regard to the boy who was

house. and could give no other name except
Ed. and no one knew what it was. He says
